Chapter 789 The Election of the Patriarch! [2 Updates]
Fu Yunshen was sent to the capital by his grandfather when he was five years old, and lived in the ancient martial arts world for nearly ten years.
He entered the court and befriended Nie Yi and others.
Ling Mianxi was still very young at that time, only a few days after birth, and was still in the crawling stage.
It was through Nie Yi that she met Fu Yunshen.
They also learned that Old Master Fu was poisoned with a deadly poison that even ancient doctors had no cure for.
If the poison came from the hand of a wise magician, then it's no wonder.
Ling Mianxi and Nie Yi both watched as Fu Yunshen repeatedly teetered between life and death.
She had absolutely no liking for Madam Yu.
However, Madam Yu had already lost her ability to speak.
When she saw the faces of Ling Mianxi, Yu Xuesheng, Qin Lingyu, and Xiu, it was as if a huge hammer had smashed down on her head, and she saw stars for a moment.
More than anything, people were horrified.
Madam Yu's teeth were chattering, and she stammered, "The...the sage..."
This is the unique aura of a sage!
She had recently had an audience with the Wise Queen, so she knew all too well.
There are four sages here!
Madam Yu's mind was buzzing.
What did she just say?
She arranged for Fu Yunshen and Xiluo to marry so that she could come into contact with the sage.
Now it sounds like a complete joke.
The four sages came to see her, just to support Fu Yunshen?
It was only at this moment that Madam Yu realized that Fu Yunshen's power and background far exceeded her imagination.
She frantically crawled to Fu Yunshen's feet, kowtowing and pleading, "Yunshen, Xiaoqi, Grandma was wrong, Grandma was really wrong."
Fu Yunshen chuckled softly: "I told you, don't try to establish connections randomly."
"Yun Shen, it's all Grandma's fault. You should have told Grandma sooner." Old Madam Yu put on a fawning smile. "Yun Shen, who are these sages? Introduce them to Grandma."
With the four sages, the Jade Clan became the number one power in the City of the World, an unshakeable force.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Yu's body trembled with excessive excitement.
"So, my grandfather endured for over twenty years. If you can hold on for just two minutes, I'll call you 'Grandma'," Fu Yunshen said calmly. "That's not too much to ask, is it?"
Madam Yu's expression changed, and she was about to refuse when she was forced to swallow the pill.
Forget two minutes, even in just two seconds, she was already in so much pain that her vision blurred and she started rolling around on the ground.
Fu Yunshen stood up and tilted his head back slightly.
Even now, he cannot imagine how much suffering Old Master Fu has endured over the years.
The power of love is too great.
The powerful can crush everything.
No one showed any pity for Old Madam Yu.
Xiu then turned around and spoke to Yu Xuesheng, "Look, doesn't my gray hair look better than hers?"
Yu Xuesheng examined it for a moment, then smiled faintly: "You can try the orange color."
"You also think orange is very bright, right?" Xiu agreed. "I'll go buy some hair dye next week."
Less than a minute had passed before Old Madam Yu had completely fainted.
Qin Lingyu took out her phone: "I'll ask Yan Zhizhang to delete the surveillance footage."
Know your enemy and know yourself, and you will win every battle.
You must remain hidden until you have found all your enemies.
"Delete what surveillance footage? I'm here, how could you possibly find me?" Xiu said disdainfully. "You're underestimating my absolute stealth."
The group of people strolled around the courtroom openly, and the surrounding knights treated them as if they were nothing.
Qin Lingyu admitted her mistake and corrected herself: "I'm sorry, I've never been on a mission with you before, so I don't know much about your abilities."
"Indeed," Xiu sighed. "It's truly fate."
Ying Zijin acted as a magnet, bringing the sages, who had previously had little interaction, closer together.
"I'm leaving now." Fu Yunshen turned around lazily. "I'm going back to be with my fiancée. She's young and needs a lot of coaxing."
build:"???"
Young age?
He must be hearing things wrong.
"I mean, why are you all so obedient to him?" Xiu asked, puzzled. "If I could beat him, I definitely wouldn't pay any attention to him, but you—"
The Sage Sun's special ability is protection.
Its defensive capabilities are unmatched.
It can even withstand nuclear bombs, making it far more powerful than ancient martial arts practitioners.
Yu Xuesheng smiled and said, "You'll know in a while."
Xiu touched his hair.
What's so mysterious about this, and why are you keeping it from him?
**
Two o'clock in the morning, at the Sage's Institution.
The steward rushed in with a panic: "Your Majesty, the Old Madam Yu has fallen into a deep coma!"
Upon hearing this, Sha Luo frowned: "What's going on?"
She wanted to silence them directly, but she wouldn't allow anyone else to do it for her.
“It’s still unclear, and there’s no sign of anyone coming in.” The steward knelt on the ground, his voice filled with fear. “The court has started investigating and has preliminarily determined that he was poisoned, but what kind of poison it is is still undetermined.”
“Foolish.” Sha Luo said coldly, “Send it to the Institute of Biological Genetics for investigation, and find out as soon as possible.”
She wanted to see who dared to overstep her bounds and make a move.
The manager wiped his sweat and was about to leave.
Sara called out to him again: "Is the election for the head of the Lengel family ready?"
“Ready.” The steward stopped and respectfully took out a document. “This is the election process.”
Sara glanced at it: "A month is too long. Compress the process and finish it in a week."
There are some people she really doesn't want to see a second time.
The steward quickly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Sara pressed her head and waved her hand impatiently: "Alright, go down."
**
A few days later.
Late October.
The election for the patriarch of the Lengel family has officially begun.
The campaign process was posted on the W website the day before.
The competition is held every two days; the first day's competition is in mechanical engineering.
This was a city-wide live broadcast.
Since the establishment of W.net, apart from the New Year's celebration at the end of each year, this is the first time that such a large-scale event has been held.
The live stream was already packed before the scheduled time.
[I came for Miss Hilo.]
+1
[If I can't see the sages, seeing Miss Hiro will do.]
Originally, other members of his inner circle participated in the election, but after witnessing Shiro's strength and influence, they all chose to withdraw.
This is also a two-way election.
Ying Zijin arrived right on time, carrying the snack box that Suwen had given her.
They don't look like they're here to compete at all.
Hilo glanced at it lightly, then paid it no mind.
"Welcome everyone to this year's election for the head of the Lyinger family." The referee, sent by the Academy of Sages, announced, "Today's competition is in mechanical engineering. Now, I will announce the following points and—"
He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
“I concede defeat in the first round.” Hilo raised his hand and smiled generously. “I know nothing about mechanical engineering, and Zijing is the top student in the engineering department this year.”
"There's no need for me to try and teach someone new things, so I'll just admit defeat."
This performance was originally intended as a gift from her to Ying Zijing.
This was also the only match that Ying Zijin was able to win.
The referee had obviously been notified by the Sage's Court beforehand, and without even asking Ying Zijing's opinion, directly made the conclusion: "Miss Ying wins the first round."
The score on the big screen jumped to 1:0.
The first round ended without a match, leaving the residents somewhat disappointed.
[Miss Hilo is so magnanimous; she admitted defeat without hesitation and without any pretense. No wonder she's the disciple of the three sages.]
[Mechanics are Ying Zijing's strength, while alchemy, medicine, and martial arts are Miss Xiluo's strength. Why don't you be more magnanimous and just admit defeat? Otherwise, it will be the Lyinger family and Madam Suwen who lose face.]
[Exactly, the contrast is stark; the two are worlds apart.]
Hilo turned her head and smiled slightly: "Zijin, what do you think?"
Ying Zijin didn't seem to be fully awake yet.
Hearing this, she raised her misty phoenix eyes, yawned, and said dismissively, "Whatever."
Hilo's gaze darkened.
She is, after all, Ying Zijing's aunt.
A junior is so disrespectful to his elders.
In the upcoming election, she wants to show Ying Zijing what it means to be outmatched and capable.
In the crowd, Norton raised his chin: "Is this your twin sister?"
Sinai sat on Norton's shoulder, her small body huddled tightly, and upon hearing this, said, "Different eggs."
“No wonder,” Norton said, crossing his arms. “He’s not just ugly, he’s exceptionally ugly.”
Sinai: "..."
She suspected that she was also being subtly criticized.
Sinai reached out and grabbed Norton's disguised hair.
But they were intercepted halfway.
Norton gripped her small wrist and warned, "Don't touch my hair."
"Oh." Sinai withdrew her hand. "I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still. Is your hair color natural?"
Norton paused for a moment, then said calmly, "No, I'm watching the game."
On the big screen, it flickered.
Second game —
Alchemy!
